  • Publication number: 20220109731
    Abstract: In some aspects, the disclosure is directed to methods and systems for real-time tracking or monitoring of client device access during sessions as well as across or between sessions, and aggregation of monitoring data. Monitored data may be used to generate predictive scores for identification of anomalous or non-anomalous behavior, or predict success or failure of an access session or access to a given content item or page. By utilizing real-time monitoring and analysis, administrators may take proactive or mitigation actions dynamically, without waiting for requests from users of client devices and without the delay of offline analysis of logs.

  • Patent number: 10653845
    Abstract: Coverings for syringe plunger tips, as well as syringes and syringe components including such coverings, are disclosed. A material of the covering may have at least one different material property than a material of the plunger tip. The coverings may provide a reduced coefficient of friction between the covering and a surface of the syringe relative to the coefficient of friction between the plunger tip and the syringe surface. The coverings may also isolate a substance loaded in the syringe from the plunger tip. Methods for manufacturing a syringe assembly including such coverings, as well as methods for isolating a substance in a syringe from a syringe component, are also disclosed.

  • Patent number: 10465664
    Abstract: A method for replacing an existing generator frame that supports a generator of a wind turbine includes removing the generator from atop the existing generator frame. The method also includes dismounting a control cabinet of the wind turbine from the existing generator frame. More specifically, the control cabinet is electrically connected to one or more wind turbine components via a plurality of cables. The method further includes relocating and securing the control cabinet to an uptower location within a nacelle of the wind turbine with the plurality of cables remaining electrically connected. As such, the method includes removing the existing generator frame from within the nacelle. Moreover, the method includes installing a new generator frame in place of the removed existing generator frame. Thus, the method also includes remounting the control cabinet to the new generator frame.

  • Patent number: 9180940
    Abstract: Systems and methods for a robust underwater vehicle are described herein. A robust underwater vehicle may include a force-limiting coupler connecting an actuation system to an actuation fin. The force-limiting coupler may be configured to break away from the actuation system upon receiving a threshold force. The robust underwater vehicle may also comprise hull sections connected by a threaded turnbuckle. Carbon-fiber axial strength members may mate with the threaded turnbuckle to pull the hull sections together to a specified preload tension. The robust underwater vehicle may also include a blazed sonar array protected by a carbon fiber bow including a plurality of slits. The plurality of slits may provide significant protection to the sonar array while simultaneously allowing one or more transducers to transmit sonar signals in a two-dimensional plane.
